Time Passes and I don't Blog

August, September, October, NOW, Wow I am not good at keeping up with this. So much has happened. I fasted and prayed with many others for the election for months. We all knew that it could swing either way, that the people were crying out for a king. And they made their choice, Obama. All I could do was just sit and watch the reports of the ballot count. Once Ohio was called for Obama it was mathematically impossible for McCain/Palin to win. I don't think the people of this country know what they have done to accelerate judgment. Just as with all shock and disappointment, I know that time will reveal the path that God has for me to follow. With prayer I always hear from God and He sorts it out for me. Really, our path has not changed. The assignment is the same as it has been for 16 months. A couple of days later another shock. Nick called us last Friday to let us know he is going to Iraq. He will start pre-deployment Nov. 30. So soon. I kind of freaked out for a short time. I hid most of my emotions, I just don't think anyone else needs to see that. I want to present encouragement, strength and I will. I told Bonnie that I would maintain strength even if I had to stick myself with a pin every couple of seconds. God's timing is so amazing. I have had this trip to AZ planned for about 2 months and it comes just 2 weeks before Nick is shipping out. I can't wait to see them, Nick, Mary, Maverick. Just a little time to love on them before he leaves.

Our departure date for KY is Dec. 28th. Once we get back from AZ it will all shift into high gear. Michael is going with us. We sold his car last week. He is still working and can share with us until we get our boots on the ground in KY. A lot of change coming in the next 60 days. I am praying for wisdom, revelation, protection and mercy for our nation and Barak Obama.
